FROM: Rebecca Callen, City Administrator
RE: CALTRANS PRESENTATION ON THE SR 49 MOBILITY PROJECT RECOMMENDATION:
Receive the presentation and discussion
STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT:
C4 Public Facilities and Services: Maintain or increase the levels of service currently available with Angels Camp for public works, including roads.
BACKGROUND:
The city has consistently been studying and planning circulation regarding State Route 49 throughout the years (documented studies from 1997 to 2023). Caltrans has invested into the CAL 49 Mobility Improvement project. This is a Mobility-Operational Improvement project that focuses on intersection improvements from CAL-49/4 N. Junction and CAL-49/Francis Street.
DISCUSSION:
Caltrans had an open house on February 8, 2023. This meeting kicked off a public comment period and also garnered several in-person questions that staff have been looking into.
City staff have worked with our Caltrans partner to identify how best to engage our community and leadership on exercising a better understanding of this project and timelines.
In addition to this presentation, Caltrans will be attending an Open House on March 7th from 4-8 pm at the Bret Harte Multi-purpose room. This will be a time for active public engagement and education on the various processes and stages of this project.
In 2009, the then City Administrator, Tim Shearer, under direction from the City Council reached out to the Caltrans District 10 Director on the 2008 Omni Means Study regarding potential Roundabouts at State Highway 4/49 and Angels Oaks Drive/State Highway 4.

At that point, the request was asking Caltrans to assign sufficient resources to review the feasibility and traffic forecasting in that study and have the city proceed with a PSR (Project Study Report). Based on that concurrence, the City of Angels requested a Overall Work Program Work Element with the Calaveras County Council of Governments to restart the PSR process.
Fast forward to 2019, a Project Initiation Report to Request Programming in the 2020 SHOP – Long Lead SHOPP Project for the SR 49/4 and SR49/Francis Mobility Project.
In 2020 GHD memorialized the Angels Camp N. Main Street/SR 49 Complete Streets Corridor Plan and provided an assessment of the preferred improvement concepts recommended in this plan, specifically the State Route 49/State Route 4 (roundabout) and the State Route 49/Francis Street (roundabout or signal conversion).
In 2021, the city provided documentation on the Angels Camp Partnership with Caltrans specifying the needs for additional access onto SR 4, the roundabout SHOPP project, and the economic and safety needs that aligned with these investments.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Funded by Caltrans

Transportation Challenges in Angels Camp
• City of Angels Camp is divided by two State
Highways (SR4 & SR49)
• SR 49 is the “Main Street” of the City and the center of economic vitality
• SR 4 bypass was built by Caltrans to relieve traffic
on SR 49 but in the process has taken valuable
customers away from “Main Street”
• Adding to the problem, SR-4 is an access-controlled
expressway which limits opportunities to improve
the economic health of the City
• Per Caltrans and City standards, 3 intersections on
SR 49 in the vicinity of the SR4 intersection currently have unacceptable LOS (> LOS D)
• Additional Access to SR-4 near the SR 4/49
intersection is needed to relieve traffic on SR-49 and
improve circulation for all modes of transportation
in that area
• Residential neighborhoods lack good alternative
ways to travel to the historic downtown and Main
Street businesses.
Angels Camp Partnership with Caltrans 1/8/2020
Caltrans/City of Angels/CalCOG Partnership
• The City and CalCOG partnered with Caltrans to identify solutions to address the region’s transportation challenges. This partnership resulted in the creation of the following:
o Angels Camp State Route 4 and State Route 49 Gateway and Corridor Study - The plan is intended to provide recommended solutions for transportation conflicts at the State Route 4 (SR 4) and State Route 49 (SR 49) intersection through integrated land use and transportation planning, as well as provide a range of strategies to implement the recommendations.
o SR4/SR49 Intersection PID - This project seeks to provide solutions and strategies for transportation conflicts and integrated land use, specifically on the northwest quadrant of SR 4 and SR 49 intersection.
o Angels Camp Main Street Plan – This plan was created to address community design, public spaces, bicycle and pedestrian facilities, and parking facilities along the City’s SR 49 “Main Street”.
o Angels Creek Trail Master Plan (Caltrans not involved) – The trails master plan identified potential non-motorized ways to connect the residential neighborhoods to the Main Street corridor.
Steps City has Taken to Implement Solutions
• City actively pursued and received CMAQ, ATP, RSTP, STIP and HIP grant funds for 3 projects:
o Murphy’s Grade Sidewalk Improvements (including SR 49/Muphys intersection) - $2M – Construction to start Summer 2020 o SR49 Sidewalk Infill – includes sidewalk infill and Class II bike lanes at various locations along SR 49. Also includes creating landscape buffer as identified in the Angels Camp Main Street Plan - $2.2M – Construction to start Summer 2020 o Angels Creek Trails Phase 1 - $6M – will connect two neighborhoods to historic downtown via a Class I trail and a Class III street. Includes a park and ride facility that will also serve as a trailhead. – Construction is TBD as more funding is needed for construction.
Steps Caltrans has Taken to Implement Solutions
• Caltrans has allocated SHOPP funds to implement two projects:
o SR49 Sidewalk and ADA Improvements – includes sidewalk infill and ADA improvements at various locations. o SR4/SR49 Intersection Project – will construct a roundabout at the SR4/SR49 intersection.
Assistance Needed from Caltrans to Continue Positive Momentum • City must have an economically thriving Main Street to be viable • City has interested developers at SR4/SR49 but can’t develop without access to SR-4 • PID estimated that $1.65M would be needed for the PA&ED phase • City would like buy-in from Caltrans on a project to build the Foundry Lane Extension, including the break in access control at the SR4/Foundry Lane intersection.

DATE: February 20, 2024
TO: City of Angels City Council
FROM: Amy Augustine, AICP – City Planner
RE: Rural Recreation and Tourism Program - Utica Park Lightner Mine Expansion Project Update RECOMMENDATION:
Acknowledge and accept updates.
STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT:
A4: Economic Development: Promote a wide variety of economic opportunities consistent with the city's social, cultural, environmental, and aesthetic resources. The proposed Rural Recreation and Tourism grant park project is intended to increase tourism through park enhancements including a stage, historical (cultural) interpretation trail, and improved pavilion for outdoor events. A new children’s playground, adult/teen exercise equipment, bocce courts, hardcourts, improved pavilion and stage are intended to encourage social interactions with local theatre productions, local musical performances, movies in the park and enhanced outdoor spaces for other local events.
A5: Economic Development: Maintain and enhance the city's economic vitality while conserving the city's social, cultural, environmental, and aesthetic resources. See above.
B2 Community Identity: Design new development to be compatible with the natural, scenic, and cultural resources and rural character of Angels Camp. The Community Stakeholders Design Committee will assist with park design to ensure compatibility with cultural resources and rural character.
C7: Public Facilities and Services: Maintain or increase the levels of service currently available within Angels Camp for park facilities and infrastructure. The project will increase the size of Utica Park by 3.8± acres, add or improve numerous park amenities, and upgrade and expand infrastructure increasing the level of park facilities available to all age groups and ability levels for residents and visitors.
BACKGROUND:
Consistent with direction from the City Council, attached is an update on the above-captioned project through January 10, 2024.
• The park committee met on 1/17/24 and reviewed the outdoor gym equipment and reached consensus on design.
The committee provided input on the parcourse and appointed a subcommittee of two persons to refine the design of the stations in the parcourse.
• Staff is working with SPEC to order children’s playground equipment in accordance with the adopted design in early February.
• The next subcommittee meeting is 2/21/24 at noon at Fire Station #1 (1404 Vallecito Road). The committee will review the parcourse design and begin reviewing interpretive signage. Staff is continuing outreach to local health organizations for additional funding in support of adult fitness equipment, parcourse/exercise equipment. 6B
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT
CITY OF ANGELS PO Box 667, 200 Monte Verda St. Suite B, Angels Camp, CA 95222 P: (209) 736-1346 Utica Park Update - 2
• The park’s Constant Contact e-mail notification database created for persons interested in park updates, newsletters, status reports includes 169 individuals. Please send an e-mail to [email protected] with a subject line “Utica Park” to receive notifications.
• Parties interested in sponsoring a memorial tree or a memorial bench are encouraged to submit their name to [email protected]. Signing up does not commit individuals to a purchase. Interested persons will be notified once costs are determined.
• GeoCon was hired as the geotechnical engineering firm to evaluate the site. A site visit occurred on 10/23/23. A draft phase one recommendation study was received October 30, 2023. Next steps required drilling to determine the configuration of mine shafts for potential capping and to confirm the construction capabilities of the area.
GeoCon has been contracted to commence that work to cost $30,670.00. Boyer and its design team determined that additional evaluation of the existing Utica Park also was necessary. GeoCon has been hired to perform that work at a cost of $4,800. A second site visit occurred December 20, 2023 for onsite evaluation of the existing Utica Park. The second study report was received 1/09/24 with recommendations for an additional $20,023 in site testing. That item was approved 1/16/24 by the City Council. On-site testing is scheduled for February 5 and February 6. Based on results, final design plans can be prepared. • The interpretive sign subcommittee met January 23, 2024, to review draft text for signage. The next meeting is scheduled for February 27, 2024. Committee members are Judith Marvin (historian), Tad Folendorf (historian), James G. Respess, Ph.D. (graphic design), Amy Augustine, Rebecca Callen. Interpretive sign language for the Mother Lode Belt, Lightner Mine and Utica Mine has been drafted. The committee now moves to people associated with the mines and historical figures from Angels Camp history, nationalities of miners represented in Angels Camp, and an Angels Camp history overview. QR codes are also proposed for various locations and on interpretive signs to provide additional information (e.g., Utica Shaft). The first batch of signage will presented to the Community Stakeholders Design Committee at its next meeting. • Staff contacted Timbercraft (local) for a cost estimate to construct park benches from the walnut trees removed from the park. A revised schedule is in mid-January for that agency to provide cost estimates and construction timelines. Staff is requesting that anyone with a brand from a local ranch contact [email protected].
The city would like to incorporate local brands into one or more of the benches being constructed for the park. • Monuments, Dedications, and Relocations. Monument relocation may be commencing for some park items.
Staff has already or will be meeting with all individuals or organizations associated with each monument to ensure they are handled properly. Please see the attached list. • The “gateway” monumentation (mining equipment) near Napa is expected to be relocated and may soon be dismantled in anticipation of relocation and to avoid destruction during geotechnical investigations. It is noted that the “gateway” monument was formerly located at the top of the abandoned staircase and has already been relocated at least once. However, because it is a structure composed of historical objects and in the historical commercial district, the item will be presented to the Planning Commission for consideration on February 9, 2024 for a recommendation. Options include relocating the monument to the entrance to the interpretive trail near the Lightner Mine which will provide interpretive signage relative to mining in the region.

RE: Resolution 24-14 adding 1177 South Main, Assessor’s Parcel 062-004-064 to the City of Angels Register of Cultural Resources.
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt Resolution 24-14.
STRATEGIC PLAN IMPLEMENTATION:
VISION: Dedicated to preserving our rich history and providing a safe and thriving community that is devoted to families, businesses, and visitors. The Angels Camp Register of Cultural Resources provides a tool for preserving the City’s history by recognizing important historical structures and encouraging their use of the State Historical Building Code to maintain those structures.
A4 Economic Development. Promote a wide variety of economic opportunities consistent with the city’s social, cultural, environmental, and aesthetic resources. The Angels Camp Register of Cultural Resources provides a tool for preserving the City’s history by encouraging their use of the State Historical Building Code to maintain the aesthetics of the structures and their continued economic use.
BACKGROUND:
The City of Angels Register of Cultural Resources (City of Angels RCR) was established by the City Council on October 18, 2022. The City of Angels Planning Commission adopted Resolution of intent 23-19 on November 9, 2023, recommending to the City Council adding 1177 South Main to the City of Angels Register of Cultural Resources. This would be the fourth addition to the City’s Register of Cultural Resources. 6C
1177 Register of Cultural Resources - 2
The owners of Assessor’s Parcel 062-004-064 (1177 South Main) has requested inclusion on the City of Angels RCR.
Pursuant to the City of Angels RCR, the Planning Commission shall determine:
Whether the property in question is qualified for inclusion on the City of Angels Register of Cultural Resources;
The Commission recommended listing the property to the City Council. The City Council shall consider the recommendations and take action to include or exclude the property for inclusion on the City of Angels RCR.
Per the PCR, qualifications for inclusion in the City of Angels RCR include resources that have:
… been evaluated and determined eligible for listing on a local, state, or national register of cultural resources either individually or as a contributor to a district pursuant to the Historic Resources Inventory and Evaluations, Historic Commercial Center, Angels Camp, CA, April 2011 prepared under Community Development Block Grant #08-EDEF-5782 by Foothill Resources, Ltd. and as that inventory may be amended.

Figure 4: Photos showing Rhyolite Construction
1177 Register of Cultural Resources - 6
The building located at 1177 South Main Street carries a general plan land use and zoning of Historical Commercial (HC).
HISTORY
The building is listed in the City of Angels 1981 Historic Resources Inventory (Leslie Crow, October 1981, Central Sierra Planning Council) and was evaluated as ineligible for individual listing on the National Register of Historic Places, but was determined to be of local interest and may be eligible for special consideration in local planning. It is identified as Carpenter’s Union Local 386 Hall constructed in 1907 by Bert Gazzola. Per the 1981 inventory:
“The historically significant section of this building is the first floor, made of locally quarried rhyolite stone.
This has been faced with slump stone, making the rhyolite serve as exposed corners of the first-floor elevation. The center of the façade has modern fenestration, and a second story balcony over the sidewalk. The second story is wooden, and is of modern construction.
The Baratano family purchased this site from Amelia Meyers and had Bert Gazzola build a lava stone building in 1907. The rhyolite was locally quarried by the builder. The building was occupied by the Lo(a)gomarsino and Bacigalupi Grocery store, then Hickman sporting goods, a dry goods store and most recently, the Calaveras Press. In 1970 the balcony was added to the front of the building, and large display windows were replaced with somewhat smaller ones.” Largely because of the building’s alterations (second story addition, balcony, and display windows), the building was determined ineligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places. However, given the documented history of the structure, the building’s association with the Lagomarsino and Bacigalupi families and the location’s prior association with the Gazzola, Baratano, and Hickman families; the building’s role in local history as a grocery and dry goods store, the use of locally quarried rhyolite, and preservation of that rhyolite on the first floor; the structure may be determined locally significant and a local contributor to the overall historical streetscape.
The evaluation is not from the City’s “official” 2011 inventory. However, individual cultural resource evaluations by qualified individuals may be substituted for structures not included in that inventory. Because the 1981 Survey was an officially recognized inventory, the use of the 1981 survey evaluation is acceptable.
Based on the preceding, the Planning Commission may find that the building qualifies for and should be added to the City of Angels Register of Cultural Resources based on local significance.
ENVIRONMENTAL FINDINGS
Pursuant to the state guidelines for implementing the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the proposed resolution is exempt from further review pursuant to Section 15331, Class 31 Historical Resource Restoration/Rehabilitation because the inclusion of the structure on the City of Angels Inventory of Cultural Resources will allow it to maintain, repair, stabilize, rehabilitate, restore, preserve, conserve or reconstruct an historical resources in a manner consistent with the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties with Guidelines for Preserving, Rehabilitating, Restoring, and Reconstructing Historic Buildings (1995), Weeks and through the application of the State Historic Building Code.

TO: City Council
FROM: Michelle Gonzalez, Finance Director
RE: CHANGE ORDER FOR AUGUSTINE PLANNING ASSOCIATES, INC.
RECOMMENDATION:
Recommend that the City Council approve Resolution 24-15, which authorizes the increase of the contract through a change order for Augustine Planning Associates, Inc. This change order seeks to augment the contract by $51,300 to cover planning services associated with the Utica Park Lightner Mine Expansion and Rehabilitation Project.
STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT:
This was part of the 2023 Strategic Plan Recommendations Section A3, A4, A5, B2, and C7.
BACKGROUND:
The City of Angels originally had a contract of $90,000 for the fiscal year 2023-2024 with Augustine Planning Associates, Inc. Subsequently, additional services were requested, resulting in an increase of $51,300, bringing the total contract amount to $141,300.
DISCUSSION:
The Community and Economic Development Department and Department of Public Works request the following budget adjustments:
1. Community and Economic Development Dpt./Augustine Planning Associates, Inc. Duties associated with the Utica Park Lightner Mine Expansion and Rehabilitation Project.
Proposed budget augmentation: $10,200.
Current contract $90,000 annually. Proposed increase of $1700/month through the end of FY 23/24 ($10,200 increase).
An average of 20 hours/month @ $85/hour has been added to APA’s scope of work above and beyond what was anticipated in the 2023/2024 FY Budget. Specific duties include preparing for and holding the Community Design Committee Meetings monthly; Community Design Committee subcommittee meetings to refine designs; coordination with the geotechnical team; public outreach coordination; Interpretive Sign Committee preparation, research and meetings; researching design details and 6D

options for park amenities (par course, gym equipment, bocce courts, hardcourts, signage, benches, landscaping etc.); preparing bi-monthly updates; soliciting supplemental funding; point of contact; and other duties as assigned.
Strategic Plan Implementation:
A4: Economic Development: Promote a wide variety of economic opportunities consistent with the city's social, cultural, environmental, and aesthetic resources. The proposed Rural Recreation and Tourism grant park project is intended to increase tourism through park enhancements including a stage, historical (cultural) interpretation trail, and improved pavilion for outdoor events. A new children’s playground, adult/teen exercise equipment, bocce courts, hardcourts, improved pavilion and stage are intended to encourage social interactions with local theatre productions, local musical performances, movies in the park and enhanced outdoor spaces for other local events.

B2 Community Identity: Design new development to be compatible with the natural, scenic, and cultural resources and rural character of Angels Camp. The Community Stakeholders Design Committee will assist with park design to ensure compatibility with cultural resources and rural character.
C7: Public Facilities and Services: Maintain or increase the levels of service currently available within Angels Camp for park facilities and infrastructure. The project will increase the size of Utica Park by
3.8± acres, add or improve numerous park amenities, and upgrade and expand infrastructure increasing the level of park facilities available to all age groups and ability levels for residents and visitors.
1. Department of Public Works /Augustine Planning Associates, Inc. California Department of Fish and Wildlife Routine Maintenance Agreement (RMA) for Angels Creek. Would allow for the City of Angels Public Works and Fire Department to provide ongoing vegetation management annually along Angels Creek within the banks of the creek. Currently, without securing this necessary agreement, Public Works crews (or contractors) are prohibited from working within the banks or riparian zones along Angels Creek.
Proposed budget augmentation: $15,000

Strategic Plan Implementation
A3 Conservation and Open Space - Protect the health and safety of people and property in the city from natural and man-made hazards. Ongoing maintenance will reduce fire hazard and improve visibility along Vallecito Road and Finnegan Lane.
1. Department of Public Works / Augustine Planning Associates, Inc. California Department of Fish and Wildlife (1602 Permit), U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Section 404), and Regional Water Quality Control Board Section 401 (Clean Water) wetlands delineations and permits to allow for the repair and fill of a portion of Finnegan Lane disintegrating into Angels Creek at the swimming hole next to the pump station. The roadside is currently eroding further and further into the creek with concerns that failure to reinforce the bank soon will result in road failure that could affect traffic flow (i.e., reduce it to one lane) and increase flood hazards.
Proposed budget augmentation: $26,100 Note: This amount is contingent upon Item #2 approval. The price is set based upon combining both projects into one site visit by APA’s technical team.
Strategic Plan Implementation
A3 Conservation and Open Space - Protect the health and safety of people and property in the city from natural and man-made hazards. The proposed repair will minimize the risk of flooding and destruction of a portion of Finnegan Lane.
C4 Public Facilities and Services - Maintain or increase the levels of service currently available within Angels Camp for public works facilities and infrastructure including roads, sidewalks, drainage facilities, public buildings, and other public facilities. The proposed repair will maintain the level of service along Finnegan Lane reducing the risk that the facility is reduced to one-lane only.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
There will be no fiscal impact as the consulting budget under Building and Planning is currently underspent for the fiscal year. Although the proposed adjustment will lead to an increased contract with Augustine Planning Associates, Inc., the overall budget will remain unchanged. This is due to anticipated savings in other services that will not be incurred during the fiscal year. Presently, the total Outside Consultant Budget $400,000, is at 46% of the budget and should ideally be at 59%.

Reference the Year and Tier of the Strategic plan and an explanation as to why it aligns.
BACKGROUND:
The ACF Regulation is part of California's aggressive strategy to mitigate the environmental and health impacts of greenhouse gases and air pollutants. It complements the Advanced Clean Trucks regulation and supports the state's commitment to transitioning to a more sustainable and clean transportation future. The regulation targets fleets well-suited for electrification, pushing for a gradual phase-in of ZEVs and setting a precedent for manufacturers to shift towards exclusively producing ZEV trucks by the 2036 model year.
DISCUSSION:
The California Air Resources Board (CARB) has enacted the Advanced Clean Fleet (ACF) Regulation, a comprehensive set of rules aimed at significantly reducing emissions from medium- and heavy-duty vehicles within California. This regulation is a part of CARB's long-standing effort to enhance air quality and address climate change by introducing stringent emission standards. Specifically, the ACF Regulation mandates the phased introduction of Zero-Emission Vehicles (ZEVs) into California's truck and bus fleets and requires that, starting in the 2036 model year, manufacturers only produce ZEV trucks. This initiative aligns with the state’s broader environmental and health goals, as articulated in various legislative and executive mandates, including the Governor’s Executive Order N-79-20.
The ACF Regulation is projected to bring substantial environmental and economic benefits by introducing 1,690,000 ZEVs into the California fleet by 2050, generating $26.5 billion in health benefits due to improved air quality and saving fleet owners an estimated $48.0 billion through reduced operational costs. 6E

CITY OF ANGELS PO Box 667, 200 Monte Verda St. Suite B, Angels Camp, CA 95222 P: (209) 736-2181 Home of the Jumping Frog - Angelscamp.gov
Rationale for Exemption:
1. Infrastructure Readiness: The City requires additional time to develop the necessary charging or fueling infrastructure to support a fully zero-emission fleet.
2. Financial Considerations: Transitioning to ZEVs entails significant upfront costs. The exemption period would allow for more strategic financial planning and access to potential grants and subsidies.
3. Operational Impacts: Immediate compliance could disrupt essential city services due to the current limitations in ZEV range and availability for specific heavy-duty applications.
Benefits of Exemption:
- Strategic Planning: Provides a window for thorough assessment and planning to ensure a smooth transition to ZEVs.
- Cost Management: Allows for phased investment in ZEVs and infrastructure, mitigating the financial impact on the city’s budget.
- Service Continuity: Ensures that city services remain uninterrupted during the transition period.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
As needs for infrastructure are identified, staff will engage with City Council for approval of the project and funding options.

RE: DISCUSSION AND DIRECTION TO STAFF TO ADVERTISE THE RFP FOR BOOSTER WAY
SEWER REPLACEMENT PROJECT
RECOMMENDATION:
Direction staff to advertise The Booster Way Sewer Replacement Project for Construction STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT:
A6 – Public Facilities and Services: Continue to Improve Angels Camp’s capacity to store, treat, and deliver water and to collect and treat wastewater as necessary to achieve the stated goals of the city.
BACKGROUND:
The Booster Way Sewer Replacement project consists of: Removal of exposed and buried sewer pipelines, removal of manholes, bypass pumping, construction of replacement sewers/manholes including stream crossings, and restoration of surfaces following pipeline construction or areas where pipelines/manholes are removed and not replaced.
DISCUSSION:
This project was identified in the 2020-2025 Capital Improvement Program as the East Trunk Phase 1/Vallecito Road Sewer Phase 1 Replacement project (page 61 of 78). The Vallecito Road section is necessary for the successful addition of the Habitat for Humanity development, Eureka Oaks.
The project was also identified in the 2012 Wastewater Master Plan (page 10-5). The city applied for a comprehensive Critical Infrastructure Water and Wastewater Project as part of the 2019 Winter Storm Hazard Mitigation Grant cycle to address multiple areas of concern in the two systems. To date, the project is still under review in the Cultural and Environmental phase. The city is moving forward with or without this funding option.
Staff will work with engineering on coordinating publishing window and bid opening. Staff will bring the winning bid back to City Council for award and authorization to contract. 6F

FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The 2023/24 Budget discussed funding for the project using sewer expansion funds and the remaining funds to come from the COVID Relief/ARPA Funding. However, based on the available funding available in the Sewer Capital Fund and given that the ARPA funds had less restrictive uses for other needs the city had, it was determined to use Sewer Capital funds instead of the ARPA allocation.
Should the Hazard Mitigation grant be awarded prior to construction, staff will update council at that time.

Provide Direction to Staff regarding the Use of Remote Meeting Attendance Platforms such as Zoom at City Council Meetings.
RECOMMENDATION:
Provide direction to staff regarding the use of Zoom or other similar remote meeting attendance platform during City Council meetings. To ensure that City Council meetings are not unduly interrupted.
BACKGROUND:
With the continued use of remote meeting attendance platforms, such as Zoom, there has been an increase in instances of members of the public anonymously interrupting city council and other public meetings. Currently, the City of Angels (“City”) allows public participation in City Council meetings via Zoom at all City Council meetings, whether a City Council member is attending the City Council meeting remotely or not.
DISCUSSION:
The Brown Act is California’s statutory “open meetings” requirement, focused on providing transparency at the local government level. The Brown Act requires, among other obligations, that “legislative bodies,” a category that encompasses city councils, include in “[e]very agenda for regular meetings…an opportunity for members of the public to directly address the legislative body on any item of interest to the public, before or during the legislative body’s consideration of the item, that is within the subject matter jurisdiction of the legislative body,” as well as an opportunity to comment during special meetings.
The Brown Act also requires that all regular and special meetings be held in the physical presence of the public, with limited exceptions. During the height of the Covid-19 pandemic, AB 361 allowed for meetings to be held entirely virtually. Under the provisions of AB 361, virtual meetings were required to permit live public comment via the internet. AB 361 became inactive in February of 2023 when the State of Emergency associated with the Covid-19 pandemic expired. Since the expiration of AB 361, City Council members have only been allowed to participate in meetings virtually under certain circumstances. Under the revised Brown Act requirements upon the expiration of AB 361, when a member of the City Council teleconferences into a meeting, the opportunity for public comment must also be available virtually.
At a meeting that all City Council members participate in-person, there is no requirement that members of the public be allowed to comment virtually. The Brown Act requires that the public be permitted to 6I

directly address the City Council, and notes that the “legislative body…may adopt reasonable regulations” for streamlining public comment.
Currently, the City permits public comment in a variety of ways including live comment via Zoom. Because public comment provided via Zoom was not an option for public comment at City Council meetings prior to the Covid-19 pandemic, it would be reasonable regulation to prohibit the public from commenting via Zoom, while allowing participation by City staff and consultants to participate remotely. Limiting public comment via Zoom helps to ensure that City Council meetings are not disrupted in a manner that prevents the City from conducting its business. Remote participation by City staff and consultants allows the City to have staff participation at City Council meetings where staff may be unable to remain at City offices on evenings when City Council meetings occur, and saves the City money where consultants would otherwise travel to City Council meetings and charge the City for travel. The requirements for virtual public comment are only triggered if a City Council member participates remotely, and do not apply to City staff or consultants.
The City Council may also consider directing that during times that Zoom or some other remote meeting attendance platform is used, the public would be able to view the meeting via Zoom, but would be unable to provide comment. This would allow the public to attend and observe City Council meetings in a remote environment, but would address concerns about disruption of City Council meetings via Zoom.
